"Horizon

1000 times I've cheated on you 1000 times I've hurt you 1000 times to much I've lied 1000 times to myself denied Everything, everything denied

But in this hour When I've lost you I know what I've done Break the staff above me

Wanted to leave more behind (heiritage) Don't know what to do with my anger But to direct it at myself But even to that I've not the courage

Where the horizon meets the the seas There I wanted to wait for you For you to find me.

1000 times promised to much 1000 times the same hurt 1000 times broken your heart 1000 times to late regreted To late, to late regreted

But in this hour When the winds are changeing I've harvested the storm That've seeded (?) myself

Wanted to leave more behind Wanted to be more for you Than a spineles body Scraped from the street

Where the horizon meets the the seas There I wanted to wait for you For you to find me.

Where the horizon meets the the seas There I wanted to wait for you For you to find me."

This is a song about a man who realizes all his mistakes after his wife had left him. He's not angry at her but only at himself because he gave her every reason to do it. He does not even want her to come back, because he knows that he does not deserve it.

And he apparently commits suicide. See the "scraped from the street" line. Especially in German it's clear.
